About the event
Alone at Last! is an outdoor theater performance by Laughing Stock Theater. It is a new play created by the cast, in the style of Commedia dell'Arte. It was directed by Martin Downs, and stars Shea Lee, Jennifer Mohr, and Claire Hart Proepper. Tickets are Pay-What-You-Can (suggested $25).
Commedia dell'Arte is an Italian form of theater that dates back to the 1500's and uses archetypical characters to tell fast-paced stories. Laughing Stock has modernized this form by combining the historical slapstick and improvisation with updated stories and sensibilities for the 21st Century.Â
